Grant frowns a little bit at that, turning Dedue's words over in his head. Speaking of choosing words carefully... "I see your concerns, for sure. But... you know he wouldn't see you being open about your pain as a burden, right? If he can likely tell, anyway, he might actually feel better with you confiding in him."

That isn't the core of the problem here, of course - but he feels it's part of it, and... he suspects there's a way to go before he or anyone else can start effectively addressing The Rest. For now, the best he's got is to try and lead into the idea that... maybe Dedue's wellbeing can coexist with Dimitri's, actually.

He shakes his head. "No-- it's alright, I asked. I'm just glad you felt you could tell me."
